Learn how arkenk works
Everything you need to know about creating tokens, adding liquidity, and staying safe on Solana.
01 — What is arkenk?
arkenk is a non-custodial, no-code Solana token launchpad. It lets anyone create SPL tokens, upload metadata to Arweave, revoke authorities for buyer trust, and create Raydium CPMM liquidity pools — all from a single interface with one wallet signature.
We never touch your private keys. Every action is performed on-chain and signed by your wallet.
02 — Creating a Token
The creation flow is split into 3 simple steps:
Identity — Set your token name, symbol, and upload an image (PNG/JPG, max 5MB). The image is permanently stored on Arweave via Irys.
Supply — Define the total supply and decimals (0–9). These determine how divisible your token is.
Review & Launch — Add social links, modify creator details, and optionally revoke authorities. Then sign and deploy.
03 — Authority Revocation
Revoking authorities is the most important trust signal for token buyers. It permanently removes certain powers from the creator:
Prevents the creator from freezing any holder's token account. Revoked = holders can always transfer.
Prevents minting additional supply. Revoked = no inflation rug, supply is fixed forever.
Locks the token metadata (name, symbol, image, description). Revoked = immutable identity.
04 — Raydium Liquidity
After creating your token, head to the Liquidity page. Your newly created tokens are automatically saved and appear in a convenient dropdown selector. Pick your token, choose SOL or USDC as the quote pair, set deposit amounts, and arkenk creates a Raydium CPMM pool for you.
The deposit ratio determines the initial price. For example, depositing 1,000,000 tokens and 10 SOL means each token starts at 0.00001 SOL.
05 — Fees
All fees are collected in the same on-chain transaction. No hidden costs.
06 — Supported Wallets
arkenk supports all major Solana wallets through Reown AppKit:
